Across
- 3. The material within a living cell excluding the nucleus
- 5. A single stranded nucleic acid molecule produced during transcription
- 8. The process where a gene's DNA sequence is copied to make an RNA
- 10. The stage where RNA polymerase moves along the DNA template strand adding RNA nucleotides
- 11. The first stage of transcription where RNA polymerase binds to the promoter and unwinds
- 12. The post transcriptional process in eukaryotes that removes introns and joins exons
- 15. Where the 3ˊ end gets modified
- 16. The double stranded molecule that carries the genetic instruction
Down
- 1. A gene that are transcribed into pre-mRNA but then removed
- 2. A bunch of adenines gets stuck on the end
- 4. A vital chemical compound essential for DNA and RNA
- 6. The nitrogenous base found in RNA that replaces thymine and pairs with adenine
- 7. Something you eat to get muscles
- 9. The final stage where RNA polymerase encounters a specific sequence and detaches from the DNA
- 10. A gene that are transcribed into pre-mRNA but they stay
- 13. A specific DNA sequence located near the beginning of a gene where RNA polymerase and transcription factor bind to initiate transcription
- 14. A vital purine nitrogenous base in DNA and RNA
